Copper Crush Is Coming In Hot

The 1st Annual Copper Crush, July 30th

We are excited to bring this spectacular new venue to the RME Series. Copper Mountain Resort has rolled out the red carpet for us, bringing in live music, gourmet burgers, craft beers, family activities and of course an exciting racecourse that will delight sweet singletrack aficionados. Register to race & retreat here.

Bring the family up for the weekend and get out of the city heat. The list of things to do here is endless, and it will take all of two days to sample them. A ride on the American Eagle lift takes you to 11,375 feet for mountain exploration. Flip, spin, and fling yourself into the blue Copper Mountain sky on our quad power jump. Come and scale the largest outdoor climbing wall in Colorado. Take a few laps on our Go-Karts, ride your mountain bike downhill, get a hole in one on our mini or regular size golf course. The possibilities are endless.

If all you want to do is relax in an Adirondack chair and listen to performers in Burning Stones Plaza, this is the place to do that also. There is a racing distance for all ages and abilities, no license required. We even have a free Kidz race for the 9 and unders.

After the race, all competitors get to enjoy theColorado Burger Summit. Restaurants compete for the title of Colorado’s Best Burger and you get to be the judge! The winner receives the Golden Ticket that will send them to compete in the nationally televised World Food Championships for the World’s Best Burger. Come feast on burgers, grab a beer and get down to live music with the Margarita Bros.
